These texts aim toexplore these emerging domains and to create awareness of key trends andfeatures, translating them into educational consciousness and practice.These texts should explore in depth and from a range of perspectives theextent, nature, and implications of new literacies in global context,challenging familiar ways of framing education, and what it means foreducation to be powerful, effective, and enabling under current andforeseeable conditions.
